the *this close to* 59

What. A. Day. I mean words can't even begin to describe how great of a day this was. 29-31-60, -12 and boosted himself to a -16 for the week. After last weeks rounds and yesterday we all knew a low one was coming soon and Bryson has definitely answered! Off the tee he was great, putting was so much better, darts into greens, bogey free, it was one heck of a round! Having a -12 today will definitely help propel this momentum into not only tomorrow but even next week.
